Book Tour: Costa Mesa & Nashville

After my extended stop in Phoenix, I headed to Costa Mesa, California (yes some call it the OC) for less than 24-hours to appear on JCTV's "Top 3" program. JCTV is a ministry of TBN (Trinity Broadcasting Network--the world's largest faith based television network). JCTV is geared towards the 13-25 age group. "Top 3" is a talk show with a "View"-like feel with four hosts 2 female and 2 male.

Prior to the show I was able to talk to the hosts, Larissa and Reba and learn a little bit more about what they do and how they got there. Since television hosting is a passion of mine, that time was invaluable.

During the show we talked about Footprints and my experience on The Apprentice as well as reality shows in general. The show will air in April...more info to follow.


I headed back home to Austin for a short stint and then flew to Nashville to appear on CTN's Bridges with Monica Schmelter with Footprints In The Boardroom.
Monica was a great host and asked some pertinent questions about the message of the book and faith and business. The show will air on April 9 in Tennessee.

Rochelle, my little sister goes to Meharry Medical College in the heart of Nashville and I stayed with her during my short trip. I haven't seen Rochie since we came back from our Turkish Egyptian Holiday. Rochie and I drove around looking for houses (she is moving out of her apartment soon), did a little shopping, and met up with Charmaine, my cast mate from The Apprentice.


Charmaine looked fabulous as usual. It's funny—the first time I met Charmaine, like everyone else I was stunned by her accent. But when you are with Charmaine in Nashville, her accent blends in perfectly.

Next week I am back to Austin for the Baylor Women's Council Luncheon...

What Rox:
Rumba! Rochelle spends most of her time studying. But with her big sis in town, she took advantage of seeing her beautiful city. We went to dinner at a restaurant Rochelle has been meaning to try, Rumba. Rumba is an Asian/Caribbean/Latin American fusion restaurant in Nashville's West End. The atmosphere is dark with bamboo and private booths. The food was quite good. I recommend the tempura rice and the tapas. Yummy! Try Rumba.
